Description

Route 66 Thirsty’s Diner Steel Sign – Ande Rooney Desert Skull

Route 66 “Thirsty’s Diner” vintage-style advertising sign produced by Ande Rooney, Inc. of Highland, New York, a company known for collectible Americana reproduction signage. The design features bold lettering reading “700 Miles Desert – Water Bags, Thermos Jugs, Ice” along with a skull graphic and the iconic Route 66 highway shield, reflecting the long desert stretches travelers once faced along the historic highway.

Constructed of heavy steel, this piece recreates the look of classic roadside warning and advertising signs once seen along desert routes. The strong red, black, and white graphics give it excellent visual impact, making it a great display piece for a garage, bar, diner-themed room, or Route 66 memorabilia collection. The reverse retains the Ande Rooney label, identifying it as part of the company’s late-20th-century vintage-style sign series.

A fun and eye-catching piece of Americana highway décor that celebrates the legend of Route 66.

Condition:
Good condition overall with visible wear consistent with handling and display. Surface marks and light imperfections may be present but the graphics remain clear and attractive. Please review photos carefully for details.

Dimensions:
7 x 12.5 inches
